LET'S HAVE SOME GAMBLING

[Slim]

or someone who doesn't live in the U.S. and thus wouldn't understand the initials of civil rights activists.

i can't name any canadian ones but i'm sure there were some.

Martin Luther King is a worldwide icon; fame isn't restricted by country.

Most people don't live in South Africa, but most know who Nelson Mandela is.

Many people have heard the Nelson "Nelson Mandela" at some point, but how many people really know who the hell he is?

BROTIP: Almost no one outside of Africa, or at least nigh no one in the US.

Actually, he's one of the most famous living people in the world.

The U.S. is bigger than your high school, by the way. Not everyone here is ignorant, and the vast majority could at least give a one sentence description of who Nelson Mandela is.

[Daddy]

yeah neslon mandela was pretty much given since he was the leader of a country.


but if you heard of nrm day(does he even have a holiday) would you instantly recognize the context of who it was and what the nrm was?

[StarPilot]

So what happens if you don't get your RAM by this coming Tuesday?

[YPrrrr]

yeah neslon mandela was pretty much given since he was the leader of a country.

Well everyone knows about Ghandi

[Daddy]

Well everyone knows about Ghandi

gandhi fucked with the british

[LCK]

i was under the impression that at least a decent amount of people knew of nelson mandela

[Daddy]

i was under the impression that at least a decent amount of people knew of nelson mandela

yeah it was an example

but the issue was that she didn't know what mlk day was and she's canadian so i dont see the problem of not recognizing random initials of holidays that they dont celebrate in canada nor would they bother learning that the u.s. has a holiday for.

I would if his initials were as recognizable as MLK's.

I'm pretty sure that someone who doesn't know of either MLK, Ghandi, or Nelson Mandela must be living as a hermit somewhere isolated from the rest of human civilization.
idk or maybe living underground with the mole people or something

[Daddy]

isolated from the rest of human civilization.

canada

you're also giving that from a standpoint of a u.s. citizen

can we have any canadians or brits tell us what exactly they learned of our civil rights movement?

I just barely know something about him, but I can say for sure most people don't.

and "being a leader of a country" really doesn't make you famous around the world at all. if you're leading huge countries like the us or russia that could conquer the damn world at any second, yeah you'll be well known, but who honestly can instantly tell you the head of thailand or even france or germany without looking it up

[StarPilot]

I like the mole people, they keep me company.

[YPrrrr]

Most people in Tennessee that is
